About

Hello and welcome to Informatics in the Round,  a podcast designed to help everyone become a part of the dialog about topics in biomedical informatics. 



I’m Kevin Johnson, a physician and informatics researcher at the University of Pennsylvania. @kbjohnsonmd on Twitter, www.kevinbjohnsonmd.net on the web! 



In this episode of Informatics in the Round  I’m joined by a half dozen guests.  



  • Sarah Bland, a leader in Vanderbilt’s Center for Precision Medicine is here, along with her son Bradley.


  • Dr. Yaa Kumah Crystal, a clinical informatics expert and role model for African American women, is here with her son Jude.


  • Jane Bach (songwriter and storyteller extraordinaire) is here


  • Shannon Rich (my very smart and very courageous friend) is here.




Why all these guests? Because today’s topic is all about me and my new Children’s book called Who, Me? I’m a Biomedical Informatics Expert Now.  It’s part of a series that Professor David Weintraub, Professor Ann Neely, and I are producing. 



I want to warn you that the guests ask me some very personal questions that I answer honestly. It might not be for everyone’s tastes. But that’s what the fast forward button is for. 



Anyway, I hope you learn a bit about me, and about my journey from this episode.



We end with a wonderfully fitting song for this episode, written by Jane Bach and sung by Jo Dee Messina:  Dare to Dream. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pg2aF1z9myw. Thanks for letting me end with such great music!
